ArchCity Defenders and Action St. Louis present the premiere collaborative podcast, "Under The Arch." Your hosts Blake Strode, Executive Director of ArchCity Defenders, and Kayla Reed, Director of Action St. Louis, explore the issues facing our community and the people working to transform them.

In this episode, our hosts speak with ArchCity Defenders Staff Attorney and Skadden Fellow Emanuel Powell about his personal experience being affected by fatal state violence through the loss of a family member, and how this experience inspired his work leading the Fatal State Violence Project, an initiative that builds on ACD’s holistic legal advocacy by working with individuals and families who have lost loved ones to state violence.
